East Staffordshire / Burton housing
Register for housing on the Trent and Dove Housing website. Remember to complete the application 6 months before you turn 18. Your social worker or Personal Assistant will support with this.
To support your application, you will need to upload proof of ID, 3 months of bank statements and 5 years of address history. This is standard for all applications.
The following will also need to be uploaded and completed by your Personal Advisor and key worker:
- Housing needs support assessment
- Supported accommodation Move on Form
- Risk Assessment
One month prior to your eighteenth birthday, you'll be awarded band 1, which is the highest priority. This banding can be backdated up to five months. Matches for properties are made firstly on banding, and secondly on date of banding, so this is important.
Note: Ask your personal advisor one month prior to turning 18 to call Trent and Dove (the main house provider) to confirm this has been done.
General enquiries: 01283 528528
Remember
- Ensure all documents are uploaded
- Make sure your banding is correct
- Attend all appointments and answer phone calls to housing.
Please note: Be open minded to different areas. Work with your personal advisor to get the best outcome.
